Novas Annual Report 2022

Annual Report 2022
In all our Supported Temporary Accommodation services, the number of
people who successfully accessed during 2022 dropped. For example, in 2014,
in McGarry House in Limerick, 206 people lived there over the 12-month
period. Last year, just 82 people accessed accommodation onsite. In our
female-only services in Dublin, the numbers who lived there dropped from
333 women to 224 women, despite more than doubling capacity from 26 to 58
during the same period.
In 2018, our Temporary Emergency Provision (TEP) in Limerick provided
accommodation for 320 people, falling to 181 in 2022. Last year there were
1,895 presentations to TEP, with 1,065 successfully securing accommodation.
Some 794 presentations, or 43%, were unable to access accommodation
throughout the year. These were people who presented to the service after
9pm, leaving them in a precarious position for the night ahead.
